Talking points

The Sixers must contain DeMar DeRozan if they hope to win. DeRozan has averaged 34.7 points and shot 56.6 percent in this season's three meetings with the Raptors. Another factor for the Sixers: The Raptors are the only NBA team ranked in the Top 10 both on offense and defense. Toronto is third in points scored (112.4 per game), sixth in field-goal percentage (47.2), ninth in the fewest points allowed (104.3), and seventh in opponent field-goal percent (45.2).
